So does any1 else watch the anime Bleach? Im watching it as i write this, and i think its a pretty good show. /discuss Edit: wow I just saw that I wrote the word "write" as right... I'm really not illiterate!!
I used to watch the anime but switched over to the manga when the plot wasnt going anywhere. A lot of the episodes are fillers e.g the whole bount story and the recent "dude in the forest in las noches". All in all its a great show except the whole senkai/bankai stuff, it feels a lot like the dragon ball super saiyan all over again. Then again its cool to see the transformations.
I'm a big fan and the new anime original arc is great, so far a lot better then previous arcs. All in all it's a great exciting series and much better then most long series imho.
yeah I agree with eel to much filler it's kinda like lets see if we can make a million episodes . still all in it's not a bad series.
yeah some of the longer filler arcs were just annoying... as well as some of the short ones (the cake filler was a bit ridiculous). However, this new filler arc seems pretty neat.
Um... yeah. Yeah, there were some pretty silly episodes around 120ish. Though some of the recent ones have been similar. (beach episode hahahaha)
I definitely agree that the show has a lot of filler content, and like with most anime they only do one or two interesting things in an episode if they do anything at all, but I like seeing the diff weapons (dont know how to spell japanese name) and their bonkais. Specially like that captain hitsugiya (sp) guy's bonkai... with the ice.
Bankai and Hitsugaya. I agree, I only watch bleach to see the fights in actual animation, like Zaraki vs Nnoitra, that was by far one of the best fights in the anime yet. The overall plot progresses very slowly which is kind of annoying, and the drawing in the manga has become quite bad (most panels are white backgrounds), but the actual art itself, character design, bankais, transformations ect, I love it. This will be in the anime within a few months (assuming they don't do another filler arc after this one finishes) and it'll be by far the best fight ever.
Dude a spoiler alert is the least you can do when posting manga material... I dont read manga and i would appreciate a warning before i see something i don't want to see.
I'm a big fan, but have to agree that a lot of the filler is annoying. It doesn't bother me that much and at least the Zanpakutou Rebellion Filler Arc has been ok.
I used to watch the episodes for Naruto & Bleach but only read the Mangas now as well, too many fillers in the animated series.
I'm a very avid fan. I have all 234 episodes on my HDD. Some of the fillers really suck, though, some of them are quite good and fill out the characters nicely. I'm really digging the Zanpakutou Rebellion at the moment. The Bountou and the little princess girl arc I really didn't like. My favorite story wise is probably the very first one to save Rukia. The scene where he appears right before she gets impaled and the music with the flames, truly a remarkable scene. I'm anxious to know more about his inner hollow self, 233-234 I finally got to see his full hollow release, truly incredible! Naruto on the other hand, I got sooooo freaking frustrated with that anime. Something like 120 episodes of filler, then they started Shippundun.
I didn't want to like Bleach, but I find myself watching it every week. I'm really just annoyed at the slow progress of the actual story arcs. Some of the fillers are ok, but a lot of them are like, whaa? The animation is not really even that good comparatively. Not sure why I like it so much, I think it's because the characters are well developed and these soap opera type anime series are really addicting.
Manga is better if you ask me, Fillers tend to go of side tracked and not come relevient in any way to the story, For example now with the current arc, the hollow side seems to possess powers that he had from the begining without his sword?
